Google's given you ways to play nifty little games in your Chrome browser before, like the time vampire that is the branded - but its newest venture is worlds beyond that. Today, Google announced Project Stream, a service that'll let you play such AAA games as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Assassin's Creed Odyssey in Chrome, all detailed in a brief development . Those who get selected for Proj🥀ect Stream's technical test, which starts October 5, will effectively be able to play Ubisoft's latest blockbuster game for free, on their laptop or desktop computers, for however long the test period lasts.

Rumors were circulating for months that Google was reportedly working on its very own console, which would rely on game streaming technology. Project Stream seems to be the end result of that work, but all it requires is an installation of Chrome rather than an entire console or program unto itself. "The idea of streaming such graphically-rich content that requires near-instant interaction between the game controller and the graphics on the screen poses a number of challenges," writes Google's Catherine ♐Hsiao in the blog post. "When streaming TV or movies, consumers are comfortable with a few seconds of buffering at the start, but streaming high-quality games requires latency measured in milliseconds, with no graphic degradation."

, including "a reliable internet connection" (Google recommends 25 Mbps download speeds), accounts with both Google and Ubisoft, and of course, an installation of Chrome.

If you're eager for the chance to try Project Stream for yourself - or just play one of the best open-world games out there foꦓr the price of free - Google is offering for US citizens 17 and up. We'll have to wait and see just how well Project Stream performs when the test starts October 5, but if any company has the resources to make such an ambitious idea work for real, it's Google.

For anyone who gets into the test - or plans to play the game on a regular ol' console - you'll want to check out these essential 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Assassin's Creed Odyssey tips.
